90% of new clients come to us as the result of recommendation from existing, and often very long standing clients - here’s what just some of them say about working with us:

 News International, Helen Micklethwait, HR Director, Corporate, Customer Direct and Marketing

Linda provided excellent HR expertise and advice during a significant period of change of about six months involving facilitating sessions with senior leadership teams, designing assessment centres to fit our business and embedding RACI - a new process for News International.  Linda has the rare ability to fit into the company culture seamlessly and became "one of the team"  instantly as well as getting the respect and confidence of the senior stakeholders.  Her extensive experience in a range of companies ensured her advice was both pragmatic and commercial without HR jargon.

  Audrey Stewart, former HR Director

Aspey Associates is an exception to the HR maxim that development specialists produce nothing but expensive psychobabble!  Linda the MD is insightful, direct, doesn't resort to jargon and importantly, gets results. I have worked with them since 1999, in the UK and US, and seen their ability to adapt to the unique culture and working practices of different organisations, such as the innovative and fast-growing Betfair. Key members of the Executive team selected Linda as their personal coach as they also like the fact that she has business experience of her own and understands how the real world of commerce works.

 Michael Thomas, Group Training & Development Director

Aspey Associates have successfully run team facilitations, coaching and one-to-one training sessions on behalf of The Economist Group.  The services provided have consistently met our requirements and been delivered to a high professional standard.  Aspey Associates have proved to have the credibility to work across all levels of the Group.

   Sarah Hopkins, Global HR Director

Linda and her team have worked with the FT for a large number of years, and provide us with first rate help across a range of areas including individual coaching, career management, outplacement and bespoke employee surveys.  They make a real contribution to our people management across the business.

   Karen Bates, Head of HR and Training, Aurum Holdings Ltd

In a high value retail business, our stores are a potential target for crime, and it is imperative to us to ensure any staff that are exposed to such an experience should have the best support available. That's why we chose Aspey Associates as our partners in times of crisis. Their advice on our processes, feedback on incident management, and the excellent trauma support they provide to anyone affected, is always well received, professional and effective.

 

Walker Books - Claire Hawk, Head of HR

We consider Aspey Associates as a partner in our business for HR consultancy, training and executive coaching. This is because of the importance they place on understanding us and our priorities, so tailoring everything to our particular needs and always suitable for Walker’s own special culture. And by never letting us down, Aspey Associates has given the HR team the opportunity to really contribute to the business, for which we've gained recognition from the top team and the whole company.
